Book Description
Did you ever wonder what happened to the great Top 40 radio stations of the 1950s and 1960s? Those fun lovin’ AM outlets with their fast-talking DJs and upbeat rock and roll music played a foremost role in the commercial radio industry meeting the growing challenges posed by the extraordinary success of television. Today’s radio stations face a similar dilemma with the endless number of digital subscription services available to many listeners. Radio’s marvelous transformation during the post-war years may provide us some practical clues that might be useful in reinvigorating this aging medium. This writing will focus on one of the Midwest’s radio broadcasting legends. A leader in Cleveland, Ohio from 1956 to 1965, Westinghouse’s KYW-Radio provided exciting programming for nearly everyone. As to how that occurred during very unsettling times is the prime focus of this book.
